SSL_EXPORT_KEYING_MATERIAL(3) OpenSSL SSL_EXPORT_KEYING_MATERIAL(3)
NAME
SSL_export_keying_material, SSL_export_keying_material_early - obtain
keying material for application use
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int SSL_export_keying_material(SSL *s, unsigned char *out, size_t olen,
const char *label, size_t llen,
const unsigned char *context,
size_t contextlen, int use_context);
int SSL_export_keying_material_early(SSL *s, unsigned char *out, size_t olen,
const char *label, size_t llen,
const unsigned char *context,
size_t contextlen);
DESCRIPTION
During the creation of a TLS or DTLS connection shared keying material
is established between the two endpoints. The functions
SSL_export_keying_material() and SSL_export_keying_material_early()
enable an application to use some of this keying material for its own
purposes in accordance with RFC5705 (for TLSv1.2 and below) or RFC8446
(for TLSv1.3).
SSL_export_keying_material() derives keying material using the
exporter_master_secret established in the handshake.
SSL_export_keying_material_early() is only usable with TLSv1.3, and
derives keying material using the early_exporter_master_secret (as
defined in the TLS 1.3 RFC). For the client, the
early_exporter_master_secret is only available when the client attempts
to send 0-RTT data. For the server, it is only available when the
server accepts 0-RTT data.
An application may need to securely establish the context within which
this keying material will be used. For example this may include
identifiers for the application session, application algorithms or
parameters, or the lifetime of the context. The context value is left
to the application but must be the same on both sides of the
communication.
For a given SSL connection s, olen bytes of data will be written to
out. The application specific context should be supplied in the
location pointed to by context and should be contextlen bytes long.
Provision of a context is optional. If the context should be omitted
entirely then use_context should be set to 0. Otherwise it should be
any other value. If use_context is 0 then the values of context and
contextlen are ignored. Note that in TLSv1.2 and below a zero length
context is treated differently from no context at all, and will result
in different keying material being returned. In TLSv1.3 a zero length
context is that same as no context at all and will result in the same
keying material being returned.
An application specific label should be provided in the location
pointed to by label and should be llen bytes long. Typically this will
be a value from the IANA Exporter Label Registry
(<https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#exporter-labels>).
Alternatively labels beginning with "EXPERIMENTAL" are permitted by the
standard to be used without registration. TLSv1.3 imposes a maximum
label length of 249 bytes.
Note that this function is only defined for TLSv1.0 and above, and
DTLSv1.0 and above. Attempting to use it in SSLv3 will result in an
error.
RETURN VALUES
SSL_export_keying_material() returns 0 or -1 on failure or 1 on
success.
SSL_export_keying_material_early() returns 0 on failure or 1 on
success.
